Hehehe. Somebody tries to make some use of Solaris.... Good Luck. Piece of advice though: upgrade to Linux, it's faster that way. Do not get me wrong... ... BUT WHAT THE F***?! This is year 2009 and Solaris still can't take care of colors?

P.S. BTW, Good Luck trying to use "TERM=xterm-color" though. Last I time I tried it on Solaris only to find that it is lacking something like half keyboard.

Really. Get over it, swallow your childish pride and get the Linux. It works.

Using (open)solaris since 2006 as main desktop... I never had problem with syntax coloring nor keyboard and no major difference with Debian or *BSD (nothing that can't be solved within 2 minutes). When it comes to Solaris, some users seem a bit biased.

Please, moderate your comments when you're not sure of the validity of your claims. Rhetorical question: what's the point of criticizing something you don't use ?

PS: Using Debian GNU/Linux since 2003, Switched my laptop to (Open)Solaris three years ago. Never switched back.

love to see this discussion! It’s great to see you all working through the issues and also, it’s great to see recommendations for testing. In the end, it’s what your actual users do and prefer that should be your biggest driver in making these decisions.internet work parttime
